Re: Dixie
in reply to a message by Belphoebe
It's useable, but I agree with Rox, it's very outdated. I guess it's sort of on par with choices like Gypsy, retro and probably offensive to some people. I knew a Dixie (in Canada) who would be in her 60s now, so it's definitely got an old fashioned feeling to it, but no Confederate connotations up here. I don't think most people here even know what Dixie means in that context.
